The set up for Rage 2 is that an asteroid has annihilated 80% of the earth’s population, and humanity’s numbers are dwindling. The gameplay we have so far is super short but there’s still quite a lot see here 23 things you might have missed

0:32 made me laugh. Your first prediction is wrong. That's actually the moon during a fast forward. Apophis (the asteroid that hits Earth hits the moon before colliding with us. Good video, but funny how your first thing you say confidently is wrong.

I don't need to wait till the end of the world to drink, just listening to this clueless cunt talk is enough to make me want to throw back a few.
BTW: It says "Big Ass Guns", they used the other special characters to separate the letters in ass. Like I said, clueless.

What is really annoying about all these RAGE 2 analysis videos is their lack of knowledge on the terminology used in the game for each faction and character type. They're using Fallout words for RAGE (Raiders for example), which proves most of these Youtubers have never played the first game.

EPIC_MEDIA_ OF_GAMES_ a lot of people had speculated that DOOM 2 was coming since ID had said they were working on an action adventure fps. But RAGE is an action adventure fps so DOOM 2 probably wasn't coming to begin with and they were teasing for this. And really it's DOOM 5

I don't thing that's "ASS" at the end, they also used a "$" for the third letter and there isn't a space in the word to indicate 2 or 3 words. I've also heard multiple people assume it means "Fu&cking", but it's censored so we can only assume.

This is not asteroid hitting the earth! IT is damaged moon and its debris around it!! Oh god make some investigation before making video!
At 2.43 shooting a mutant! Have you even watched the first game???

It's 70 years after so 'Lieutenant Nicholas Raine' (you as original main character) would be aged about 100. be interesting to find out what happened to him, wonder if he is still alive, like if that old Doctor Antonin Kvasir can survive then?

Dani Aquino you won't care about the new protagonist lmao what the fuck does that mean the one from rage 1 was a bland generic nameless nobody how the fuck did you even give any shit about him this new one is already more interesting and the games not even out

The thing I don't understand is, well... I'll get to throw a knife-edge weapon, like a hunter, ground pound like a titan and punk slap much better than a warlock. Is rage doing guardian better than destiny? Quite possibility, very much, almost definitely yes. I don't see a negative either.

I'm currently replaying the game and it feels very similar in tone as far as the actual gameplay goes. They just brightened up the color palette a bit and gave the world more variety, which is nice so you don't feel like you're driving through Arizona the whole time

Big D well rage 1 was pretty wacky itself, with wacky characters. The tone feels the same to me. The only thing that concerns me is the superpowers we’re now getting, but I’m sure id will make it work and integrate what made the first rage fun into this one. We’ll just have to wait and see.

I'm not sure I agree about the multiplayer speculations: Bethesda have historically been very single player focused, and the original Rage only ever had multiplayer minigames (car races, etc.). It would be a very very easy way to completely alienate your potential audience by making the game a Destiny clone (and there are quite enough of _those_ in development right now, thank you very much). Hopefully what we are seeing are just AI escorts (like in Half-Life or Halo, etc.)

Most Definitely Pc all the way,but damn,what are the specs? Will we all need to upgrade to the 1180ti by then? Yep,like I said Most Definitely an Xbox X day 1 purchase,but what if by then Sony has announced the PS5 release date? Soo,upon futher review, I'll be buying this without a doubt used for the PS5....unless the End of Days has fully kicked in!

This is running on the IdTech6 engine most likely, DooM had freaking amazing graphics and it ran super well on current gen, also took advantage of the Vulcan API.
imo this game will probably run as well as Doom, considering they had time to improve on certain things.

First game was very under-rated I thought. I liked it a lot. Sure, it's not a great game, but it's still very enjoyable.
It somehow was marketed as something pretty different to what it actually was, so people just slated it because they thought they were getting something different to what they actually got.
I think people expected a fully open world style game similar to far cry 3, or even elder scrolls/fallout games but without the RPG elements.
I kept my mind open to what I got, was just interested in how fun the gunplay looked and how nice the world seemed. I didn't care whether it was fully open world explorable game with tons of side quests, I just wanted a nice fun action shooter with some driving and other fun stuff. And I got pretty much exactly what I expected.
I think if they had marketed the game differently, it would have received much higher praise than it did.

Plus they really emphasized how it was made by "the guys who did Doom and Quake" and people who were sick of military shooters and wanted a throwback were disappointed as this was a military style shooter with a different coat of paint. Little did they know that in a couple years afterwards old school fps mechanics would make a full comeback

This game looks like a complete overhaul that blends the best parts of Fallout, DOOM, Mad Max, Just Cause, and even Titanfall. May end up surprising everyone and being one of the best games ever made by Bethesda.
